5. MEASURING PROCEDURE
As intend to let the balance under the best operatio
n
condition, it recommend to warm up the balance at leas
t
30 minutes before make the operation.
1) Place the balance on a flat hard surface.
Ad
j
ust the " Rubber Pad " ( 3-7, Fi
g
. 1 ) until the water
bubble of the " Level Bubble " ( 3-2, Fi
g
. 1 ) on the center
position, then the scale already install under the
horizontal position completely.
2) Set the "
g
" or "oz" unit by slide the " Unit Switch "( 3-11, Fi
g
. 1 ).
* The scale are set to the "
g
" unit typically.
* Use the "-" type screw driver to slide the " Unit Switch ".
* Slide the " Unit Switch " to the ri
g
ht position will set t
o
"
g
ram " unit & the ri
g
ht down corner of LCD will show th
e
"
g
" marker.
* Slide the " Unit Switch " to the left position will set t
o
" oz " unit.
3) Turn the " Power Switch " ( 3-6, Fi
g
. 1 ) to the " On " position.
1 = On, 0 = Of
f
The " Display " ( 3-5, Fi
g
. 1 ) will show " 8.8.8.8.8 " for a few
seconds, then " 0 " value ( 0.00
g
for
g
ram function, 0.0000
for oz function ) will be present.
4) Apply the load to the platform
g
ently, display will show
the measurin
g
wei
g
ht values.
* Do not exceed the over load capacity of the scale.
* Over wei
g
htin
g
, the display will show " - - - - - ".
5) Tare function :
After wei
g
htin
g
the first item, press " Tare Button " ( 3-4,
Fi
g
. 1 ), scale will reset to zero values automatically.
At the same time, the LCD display will show the " TARE "
mark. Place next wei
g
hted item onto scale. Scale will
g
ive wei
g
hts of the second only.
5
Consideration of tare functio
n
*
If the display show minus wei
g
ht or show "_ _ _ _ _
"
means the display readin
g
is under the zero, the
n
tare function should be executed.
*
Before measurin
g
the wei
g
ht, If the display is no
t
zero & show some value, it means the internal circui
t
is over the zero, then tare function should b
e
executed.
*
T
he max. tare capacity is approx. 300
g
.
*
T
he " Tare " marker will disappear until power of
f
and power on a
g
ain.
6. SELF-CALIBRATION
1) Please prepare the followin
g
optional " Standard Wei
g
ht " :
200
g
ram standard wei
g
ht (WT-200, optional).
or
100
g
ram standard wei
g
ht.
2) Calibration under the 200
g
ram standard wei
g
ht
a) Power on the scale until the display show zero value.
Apply the 200
g
ram standard wei
g
ht to the center of the
platform
g
ently. If the scale is not accurate, then may
show the wei
g
ht value around 200
g
( for example 199.93
g
, 200.06
g
.....)
b)
Step 1 :
Press the " CAL. Button " ( 3-3, Fi
g
. 1 ) once,
display will show the value of " 100.00
g
"
Step 2 :
Followin
g
press the " Tare Button " ( 3-4, Fi
g
. 1 ) once,
display will show the value of " 200.00
g
"
6
Step 3 :
Press the " CAL. Button " ( 3-3, Fi
g
. 1 ) once a
g
ain,
display value of " 200.00
g
" will flash 6 times, then the
calibration procedures are finished completely & balance
is ready for the measurement accurately.
3) Calibration under the 100
g
ram standard wei
g
ht
a) Power on the scale until the display show zero value.
Apply the 100
g
ram standard to the center of the
platform
g
ently. If the scale is not accurate, then may
show the wei
g
ht value around 100
g
( for example 99.94
g
, 100.05
g
.....)
b)
Step 1 :
Press the " CAL. Button " ( 3-3, Fi
g
. 1 ) once,
display will show the value of " 100.00
g
"
Step 2 :
Press the " CAL Button " ( 3-3, Fi
g
. 1 ) once a
g
ain,
display value of " 100.00
g
" will flash 6 times, then the
calibration procedures are finished completely & balance
is ready for the measurement accurately.
Consideration of Self-Calibration
:
*
T
he internal Self-Calibration value is saved to th
e
internal EEPROM circuit permanently. Once power off the
n
power on, the calibration value will be not disappeared .
* After make the self calibration, measure the 100
g
or 200
g
standard wei
g
ht a
g
ain, if the display value existin
g
few
counts deviation, it is normal. However within few hours,
the balance will be kept under a hi
g
h accuracy condition.
T
hose accuracy will be even better than the published
specification ( refer pa
g
e 2 ).
* Under the status of " oz " unit, still can use the wei
g
ht o
f
100
g
or 200
g
to make the calibration. However the "
g
"
marker will disappear.

7. COUNTING SCALE OPERATION
PROCEDURE
1) Prepare a lot of countin
g
sample units. The no. o
f
countin
g
sample will be 10 PCs, 20 PCs, 50 PCs or 100
PCs.
The more PCs of countin
g
sample will be better.
*
No load to put on the platform.
2) Use the fin
g
er to hold the " CAL. Button ( function
A
Button ) " ( 3-3, Fi
g
. 1 ), at the same time set the
" Power Switch " ( 3-6, Fi
g
. 1 ) to the " On " position.
Until one beeper sound is present, then release the
fin
g
er away from " function A Button ".
3) a. The bottom left corner of LCD will show the
" COUNT " marker, at the same time the LCD will
show no. of sample units from 10, 20, 50, 100 in
sequence & chan
g
ed per second.
b. Put the countin
g
sample units ( For example 10 PCs,
20 PCs, 50 PCs or 100 PCs ) on the platform.
c. Until the display reach the no. of sample units
exactly, for example " 50 ", push the " function
A
Button " ( 3-3, Fi
g
. 1 ) once a while. The display
will flash twice and freeze the sample countin
g
no.,
then take away the sample units. Now the
balance is ready for countin
g
.
8
Chan
g
e to the new countin
g
sample units
Under the countin
g
version if intend to chan
g
e the
countin
g
sample units, the new procedures are followin
g
:
a. Take away any load from the platform.
b. Push the " function A Button " ( 3-3, Fi
g
. 1 ) once a
while. LCD will show no. of sample units from 10, 20,
50, 100 in sequence & chan
g
ed per second.
c. Put the countin
g
sample units ( For example 10 PCs,
20 PCs, 50 PCs or 100 PCs ) on the platform. Until the
display reach the no. of sample units exactly, for
example " 50 ", push the " function A Button " ( 3-3,
Fi
g
. 1 ) once a while a
g
ain. The display will flash
twice and freeze the set countin
g
no., then take away
the sample units. Now the balance is ready for countin
g
& the sample countin
g
units already chan
g
e to new
value.
Consideration
:
@
Under the countin
g
function, 1 PC wei
g
h
t
should lar
g
e than 0.50
g
, other wise the resul
t
of countin
g
no. may existin
g
some error.
@
The accuracy for the " countin
g
no. " result ar
e
always depend on the no. of " sample units " tha
t
key in. We stron
g
recommend that it can tak
e
more sample units as possible, for example 5
0
PCs or more, then will
g
et the best accuracy.
4) a. Take away the counting sample units away from
the platform, then put the new lot of units that
intend to be counted on the platform.
b. The display will show the countin
g
no. of the new
" sample units ".

8. BATTERY REPLACEMENT
If battery is weak, LCD display will show " LO " indicator.
Every 1 second the " LO " indicator will flash one time.
This reminds user to replace new battery.
1) Open " Battery Cover " ( 3-8, Fi
g
. 1 ) located at the bottom
of the scale.
2) Accordin
g
to the device instruction, place batteries ( 1.5V
AA size battery x 6 PCs ) into the battery compartment
&
replace the battery cover.

AC/DC
ADAPTER
OPERATION
(Adapter is optional accessory)
1) The scale will also be operated by the household ACV
power source (110/220/240 ACV) with a DC 9V
Adapter ( capacity 300 mA).
2) Plug the jack from the Adapter into the " DC 9V
receptacle " ( 3-9, Fig. 1 ).
3) Now the scale is ready for ACV operation.
